    That Canadian shoe smuggling story proves Trump doesn't understand tariffs at all. He thinks the smugglers - by buying shoes in the USA, but not paying tariffs to Canada - are screwing over the USA.

    If you made a flow chart out of Trump's comments, it would resemble a drain.

    Used to get all my basketball gear in Grand Forks, ND before it made it to Canada. Still have a 40 year old Wilson Jet basketball that is in great shape. Days of high quality leather.

    It's reached the point where I doubt my grasp of basic facts. I have been fully gaslit.

    If I remember my flag etiquette correctly, that flag has been soiled and needs to be burned.

    I want to know if *I* am missing something. It's not illegal for Canadians to buy shoes when they visit the U.S. And whatever duties you have (which have nothing to do with government tariffs on imported goods, so who knows what the idiot was talking about?) have an exemption up to a certain dollar amount, right? -- enough for a pair of shoes. The U.S. has those duties, too, for what it is worth. Why do I get the feeling Trump has been to Italy and came back with dozens of pairs of scuffed up shoes, and now he is projecting one of his "scams" on Justin Trudeau?
